TOP OF THE DAY by Howard Polskin

Greetings! The right’s gonna love this: Matt Calkins, a Seattle Times sports columnist for more than a decade, resigned after the outlet allegedly spiked his column in support of two high school female athletes who resisted competing against biological males. NewsBusters has the details.  And here’s the rejected column that Calkins posted on his Substack. Worth noting: The NY Post jumped on the story this morning and published a column by Calkins about why he quit and also reprinted the spiked article.  This story may have legs...Gag alert: American Greatness has published a list of the Trump administration’s greatest accomplishment in the last year and concludes that it’s the “most consequential presidency in generations”...Surprising as it seems, the conservative entertainment blog Hollywood in Toto is intrigued by what it describes as a woke, queer slasher film helmed by a trans director. The blog notes that Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma is performing well in limited release and may be poised for success as it expands to more theaters this weekend. The blog usually goes thumbs down on any movie that reeks of woke...Weekend watch: The eight-part Hulu series Furious ranks as the darkest program I’ve seen this year. Nonetheless, the story about a damaged rookie female FBI agent on the trail of young woman serial killer in NYC bristles with originality and has moments that are genuinely thrilling. Weekend whiff: Sunday afternoon, Fox broadcasts the Freedom 250 Grand Prix, the Trump-created IndyCar race in the nation’s capital. The cars will zip around the 1.66-mile course through some of DC’s most iconic streets. It’s another sad attempt to turn the capital into a theme park. Not for me....If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting. Howard
